Hi, I’m Ric Mattison, a marketing and communications professional based in Dallas, TX. I specialize in digital campaigns, brand development, and cross-functional collaboration to drive engagement and growth for health-tech, consumer brands, and B2B programs.
I love turning data into actionable strategy, building scalable marketing programs, and delivering creative assets—from landing pages to email campaigns—that resonate with audiences and convert. When I’m not optimizing funnels or planning GTM initiatives, I enjoy mentoring teams and exploring new technologies to stay ahead in a fast-paced landscape.
